Samsung has unveiled its latest batch of budget Odyssey gaming monitors including a flat, rather than a curved model that can do 4K at 144Hz. It also unveiled a QHD model with HDR10 support, along with a pair of budget oriented 1080P displays.

Unlike Samsung's curvy G9 and G7 models, the Odyssey G7 28 (G70) has a flat panel and uses IPS rather than QLED tech. With HDMI 2.1 compatibility, it can do 4K at up to 144Hz, meaning it'll support Sony's PS5 and the Xbox Series X models at 4K 120Hz with room to spare. It also delivers wide 178-degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles, 1-millisecond response times and compatibility with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-SYNC.

With IPS rather than QLED, it's not nearly as bright as the curved G7 and G9 models, but still delivers VESA HDR400 support with average and peak brightness levels of 350 and 400 nits, respectively, though just 8-bit color support. That should make it decent but not amazing for entertainment chores.

The company also unveiled the G5 27 (G50A) a QHD (2,560 x 1,440) flat model with 165Hz refresh, a 1-millisecond response time and G-SYNC/FreeSync Premium compatibility. It's also reasonably bright and color-accurate for an IPS monitor with 400 nits of peak brightness and 10-bit support, though it's not VESA HDR400 compatible. Finally, Samsung unveiled a pair of 1080p models, the G3 27 and G3 24 (G30A) models with 144Hz refresh rates and a 1-millisecond refresh rate, along with AMD FreeSync Premium compatibility.

Porsche's shift to electrification could boost its motorsports output. The German automaker has announced a joint venture to develop and produce battery cells for race cars and a small batch of high-end production vehicles. Porsche will make a high double-digit million euro investment in the "Cellforce" project, Chief Executive Officer Oliver Blume said at a press conference, reports Autoblog.

The new cells will be able to charge in less than 15 minutes, which is significantly faster than the 22.5 minutes it takes to charge the Porsche Taycan battery to 80 percent from 5 percent, according to Bloomberg. Porsche previously revealed that it would use a silicon-based anode instead of the customary graphite in a bid to boost power density and reduce the battery's overall size. The changes should be a good fit for motorsports, where the size and weight of a vehicle and quick refueling is critical to winning races. Porsche made the jump to the electric Formula E championship for the 2019/20 season.

Like the rest of the automotive industry, the company is going all-in on electrification. Porsche previously said that it expects at least 80 percent of its vehicles sold globally to be partially or fully electric by 2030. To get there, Porsche is spending $15 billion on electric mobility along with digital services.

Its partner on the battery project is lithium-ion specialist Customcells, whose facilities in Tübingen, South-West Germany are close to Porsche's headquarters in Stuttgart. Reports, which have been swirling in the German media since last fall, previously indicated that the Tübingen site would serve as the location for the battery production plant. The German government has now virtually made that a certainty by contributing around $71 million to the project in exchange for the factory being located in the south of the country. Porsche said it will own 83.75 percent of Cellforce, compared to Customcells' 16.25 percent minority stake.

Blume made it clear, however, that the project would not match the scale of Tesla's Gigafactories. The small-scale plant would produce around 100 megawatt-hours of annual capacity, the CEO said, enough for around 1,000 sports cars per year. The tech developed by the venture will trickle down to Porsche's high-performance derivatives of existing cars. Though the company played down any large-scale transference at the outset.

Not many people in tech are famous. Famous in the sense that at least some of the general public have at least some idea who they are. Tim Cook, yes. Bezos, of course. Elon, unavoidably. OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei is well on his way. He has been since 2013 when, aged 23, he became the public face of OnePlus rather than his considerably more experienced co-founder Pete Lau.

Then, in October, Pei quit. Finally he’s ready to reveal what comes next. It’s audio-related and products are coming next year. And he’s signed up none other than Tony Fadell, principal at advisory firm Future Shape and inventor of the iPod, as a seed investor on his post-smartphone career move.

OnePlus arrived with a plan to change the mobile phone market – and arguably it did, at least initially. The firm’s budget phones were well designed, had good specs and reliable hardware capable of taking on established brands that charged customers a lot more.
Pei’s sudden departure sent the rumour mill into overdrive. Most danced around the opposing views that he’d been fired by Lau after a dust up over the direction of OnePlus or that he’d quit to start his own business. The timing – right after the launch of the Nord handset that many viewed as a return to form for OnePlus – seemed, on the surface, odd. Now the dust has settled, Pei has revealed a few key details, including when he actually left OnePlus, if he really fell out with Lau and, crucially, what he is doing next.Pei confirms that he left OnePlus a month before the outside world noticed, on his birthday, September 11. “It was like a birthday present to myself,” Pei says. “I wanted to explore something new. I still feel like I have a lot of creativity within me, but I still love tech and I have some new ideas I wanted to try out. So I decided to make my birthday my last day.” Was being in charge of the Nord launch not exciting enough? “OnePlus is a really large company, compared to where we were when we were just started. And once the company is larger, you’re kind of set in your strategy. So, by turning a blank page, I can be a lot more creative with what I choose to spend my time on.”So did Pei feel constrained at OnePlus? “I don’t have anything against my time there. I learned a lot. I kind of grew up there. Now, in my thirties, I want to try something new.” Pei also insists he did not fall out with Lau. “It was an amicable departure and we’re still in touch,” he says. “We text each other once every couple of weeks. I told him [I was leaving] face to face at a cafe. I don’t think he saw it coming, but I very calmly laid out my gratitude and what I wanted to do next. We talked a couple of times [after that] and in the end he agreed and is supporting me.”

As to what will be next, when you consider that, years before OnePlus was even conceived, Pei sourced white-label MP3 players in China to sell globally and was part of the leadership team for the creation of the OnePlus Bullets earphones, it’s not entirely surprising that his new venture is centred around music.

While confirming that multiple pieces of hardware will be coming in 2021, Pei also explains that this new company will have a broader focus than just headphones. He won’t confirm headphones are in the works, mind you. “It’s so much more than that,” Pei says.

He’s being deliberately nebulous, of course, and knows more than most how to generate publicity (both good and bad), but one clue is that he mentions customer experience many, many times in most interviews.

Maybe a new kind of multi-room setup like Syng or music service to go with the hardware coming in 2021? Neil Shah at Counterpoint Research points out that with his Swedish heritage Pei might well be getting closer to Spotify, or a startup which Spotify could acquire. He has a potential direct contact in Szymon Kopeć, formerly at OnePlus and now product manager at Spotify.

Whatever it is, Pei has amassed a stellar lineup of seed investors, raising $7 million before going for Series A funding. Tony Fadell, the former Apple vice president often loftily referred to as the “father of the iPod”, is on board lending considerable weight to whatever “more than music” turns out to be. As is co-founder and CEO of Reddit Steve Huffman. Twitch co-founder Kevin Lin and Product Hunt CEO Josh Buckley have also bought in. Casey Neistat, the millionaire vlogger and co-founder of the multimedia company Beme, later acquired by CNN, has skin in the game, too.

When Apple announced the transition to its own Apple Silicon chips for its new Mac line, few could’ve imagined the extent of praise and plaudits that followed the release of the hardware.

On the face of it, and bearing in mind that it’s still early in the transition, it appears Apple has a formidable success on its hands. The M1 MacBooks have, thus far, avoided causing the same compatibility and performance woes of ARM-based predecessors, while providing strong battery life as a neat cherry on top. As such, the rest of the industry can’t stand still.

Several manufacturers have already taken their own steps into similar territory as the first Apple Silicon chip, from Intel’s Lakefield processors, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips as well as Microsoft’s SQ1 and SQ2 collaboration with Qualcomm. While AMD is yet to enter this exact area, it’s had a stellar year with its Ryzen 4000 laptop processors and could emerge as a runner in this race going forward.

While hardware is a significant part of this puzzle, the current state of the non-Apple ARM device landscape revolves around Windows. Devices such as the Samsung Galaxy Book S (the Snapdragon version) and the Surface Pro X have showcased Windows on ARM, with Apple owing a debt to these for providing a low point against which its M1 MacBooks could shine. Yes, the gear offered impressive designs that efficient ARM chips could enable, but teetering compatibility and a high price meant they were hard to recommend. However, a new sleeker take on Windows might just solve this conundrum.
From improving the software compatibility and performance of Windows on ARM to Intel, Qualcomm and AMD providing the chips to facilitate it, Apple’s rivals have a ton of catching up to do. Let’s take a look at where they are at and the future plans they have.

We'll kick things off with the manufacturer that currently represents one of the most widespread uses of ARM right now – check your phone and there’s a high likelihood it’ll be one of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips that’s inside. Even iPhones continue to currently use a Qualcomm modem.

Naturally, Qualcomm was the company Microsoft turned to for the beginning of a new wave of ARM-powered devices – the Surface Pro X. The benefits were immediately obvious, taking the rather stagnant design of the regular Surface Pro range and giving us a glimpse into the future. The Surface Pro X was better looking, more portable and offered better battery life.

However, the Pro X was priced at a premium, while only offering decent productivity performance and a range of compatibility issues. Then 2020 brought about the second iteration of the device, but not much had changed. It had a new Microsoft SQ2 chip and slightly improved performance, but was still largely hamstrung by Windows on ARM.
Around the launch of the 2020 Surface Pro X, both Qualcomm and Microsoft spoke about the steps they were taking to enhance the user experience and remove performance hurdles. However, we are yet to see these truly play out. While progress in this department is plausible and the performance of the Snapdragon chips will only grow, it seems more likely that another Microsoft project might be the catalyst for Windows’ ARM prospects.

Onto the chipmaker from which Apple is currently transitioning away. Intel is still churning out processors that offer strong performance in the laptop form-factor. Yet, it has failed to satisfy the more efficient aims that ARM can accommodate and Apple is clearly shooting for.

Away from its more traditional laptop chips, Intel has looked to rival ARM chips with its own hybrid Lakefield processors. The key benefit? Lakefield runs traditional Windows natively, avoiding the compatibility issues currently hampering Windows on ARM.

However, when Lakefield debuted on an Intel version of the Samsung Galaxy Book S, we may have got the super-slim and forward-looking design but the performance still floundered compared to Intel’s regular line of laptop chips. By comparison, Apple’s M1 chip has shown improvements to performance on top of what’s gone before rather than presenting any kind of compromise to achieve its design.
Nevertheless, Lakefield did bring the battery life benefits that more efficient chips are expected to bring, and firmly represented a base for the company to build upon in 2021 – even if it appears to have a long way to go. According to hardware site AnandTech, these plans take the form of a new Alder Lake processor, with Intel focusing on making key performance improvements this time around.

If ARM is to truly become ubiquitous on Windows then a seachange is needed. The Intel and Qualcomm collaborations with Microsoft are clearly making some progress. However, it currently feels like this progress is simply moving towards catching up to the speeds traditionally offered by existing Intel and AMD mobile chips with some of the efficiency benefits of ARM. Apple has shown ARM chips have far greater performance capabilities than this, but Apple has had the benefit of creating an operating system that has almost seamlessly integrated ARM.

A more lightweight operating system might be the answer for Microsoft – enter Windows 10X. Windows 10X was announced back in October 2019 as an operating system for “enabling dual-screen PCs in 2020”. As we get ready to exit 2020, Windows 10X is nowhere to be found, however, it seems like it could be due to Microsoft setting its sights on a bigger picture.

In May 2020, Microsoft’s chief product officer Panos Panay acknowledged that Windows 10X would now debut on single-screen devices and would “leverage the power of the cloud to help our customers work, learn and play in new ways”.

Whether the benefits of a more lightweight Windows would lead to an improved experience for Windows on ARM is not immediately clear, with Windows 10X still being designed with traditional Windows apps in mind and leaning closer to a Windows take on Chrome OS than a fully fledged, ARM-friendly version of Windows.

A more immediate beneficiary of a lightweight Windows 10X could be Intel’s hybrid chip offering, such as Lakefield, which is already moving towards the efficiency gains of Apple’s M1 philosophy while still supporting traditional Windows apps.

Microsoft has released a new Microsoft Edge Dev browser build, and this time the changelog includes fewer improvements as compared to the previous versions.

With this update, the Dev build is increased to 78.0.268.1 on the supported desktop platforms. There are three new features in this update, as it follows.

First and foremost, Microsoft Edge now comes with an improved feedback submission form that includes support for additional files, like screenshots. Furthermore, users can also reproduce the problem for what Microsoft describes as “more robust logging.”

Then, Microsoft Edge now allows for items in the Collections to be reordered with the keyboard, which is a neat touch given that many users on the desktop rely on the keyboard for navigation.

And last but not least, this version of Microsoft Edge introduces a new management policy to allow history syncing when work or school accounts are configured in the browser.
"Important fixes"

The new Microsoft Edge Dev build also includes a handful of fixes that so many users will find pretty useful. For example, the software giant has finally resolved a bug causing favorites to fail to sync, as well as a crash occurring when users tried to export a Collection to Microsoft Word.

A glitch that previously caused webpages installed as apps to fail to launch has been addressed as well, and Microsoft says that a separate problem impacting the options available in the tab context menu and causing some of them to go missing.

Today’s browser update is available on both Windows and macOS, but keep in mind this is still a Dev build, so small glitches here and there are something that must be expected. No ETA is available as to when Edge could hit the stable channel, but a potential ETA could be the first months of 2020.

KB4515384 is the cumulative update that Microsoft released on September 10 for devices running Windows 10 version 1903, or May 2019 Update.

The update was included in the September 2019 Patch Tuesday rollout and brought both security and non-security fixes. You can find the full KB4515384 changelog here.

Microsoft says this cumulative update comes without any known issues, which is something that you don’t see too often on Windows 10.

I mean, the previous cumulative updates have caused so many problems on the Windows 10 devices where they got installed that many users are now super-reluctant to update on day 1, mostly because they’re afraid of bugs that could break down their devices.

Hearing Microsoft saying there are no known issues in this cumulative update is something that seems too good to be true, so I decided to search the web for problems that users might be experiencing after installing KB4515384. And here’s what I found.
"Isolated KB4515384 issues"

First and foremost, I’ve found more than a handful of users claiming KB4515384 broke down Windows Search. This is a problem that was first encountered after installing cumulative update KB4512941, but this new release was supposed to resolve it. As it turns out, it didn’t.

Then, some say Windows 10 cumulative update KB4515384 fails to install. This appears to be an isolated case, but the error that users experiencing this come across is 0xe0000100.

One user claims they experienced a BSOD on Windows 10 version 1903, but it’s not clear if this was caused after installing cumulative update KB4515384 or not.

Some apps no longer run, others claim, and it’s believed this cumulative update is to blame for this. In some cases, these apps return to a normal working conditions after one or more reboots.

On Microsoft’s Community forums, one user is complaining that audio drivers were removed after “the latest Windows Update.” Still not clear if this refers to the installation of KB4515384.

Several users said the Start menu is broken, and an attempt to launch it fails with a blank window on the screen. Removing the update apparently restores the Start menu.

Keep in mind that the issues here aren’t widespread for now, so if you experience any of them, make sure you let us know in the box after the jump.

A new Google Chrome feature will allow users to copy content on one device and paste it on another, regardless of the platform that the browser is running on.

In other words, this feature will enable a shared clipboard that will be available in Google Chrome on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android.

While shared clipboards already exist at OS level, as it’s the case on Windows 10, Google wants this feature to bring together all these platforms, as long as the browser is installed.

A Chromium Gerrit post spotted by Chrome Story details how the feature could work when it’s ready:

“Enable receiver device to handle shared clipboard feature – Enables receiver device to handle shared clipboard feature by showing a notification to receive the clipboard to share.

Enable shared clipboard feature signals to be handled – Enables shared clipboard feature signals to be handled by showing a list of user’s available devices to share the clipboard.”
"Flags already there in Chrome Canary"

In other words, once the shared clipboard is live, Chrome users will be able to copy content on their device within the browser and then choose the other device where the same Google account is used to send the clipboard info. The receiving device will then display a notification that shared clipboard data is available.

As per AP, evidence of this feature has already been discovered in Google Chrome Canary, where a set of experimental flags seem to already exist for the shared clipboard. However, they don’t enable any feature for now, most likely because the new functionality is still in the internal testing stage.

There’s no ETA as to when it should be finalized, of course, but on the other hand, we expect the shared clipboard to go live in Google Chrome Canary rather sooner than later for public testing.
